Design scale/rotate/translate/shear iconsBRL-CAD
Status: ClosedTime to complete: 100 hrs Mentors: Kesha Shah, Hardeep Singh RaiTags: artwork, concept, icons, design

BRL-CAD is a 3D modeling systems where one is very often performing edits on geometry using common matrix transformations that scale, rotate, translate (move), and shear (skew) geometry. We need good application icons to indicate those actions

Define a set of useful icons that we might want to use in our main GUI application (e.g., on a top toolbar). Submit the icons in a raw editable format (e.g., SVG, AI, PSD, or XCF) as well as an overview of them all in PNG format.

The icons should be scalable at least from 16x16 through 128x128 while maintaining a clean appearance.

Ishwerdas on December 6 2014 08:50 UTCNice work!

I liked these icons, they are simple, flat and descriptive. Just one thing, if the icon for scale could have smaller arrows and a bigger object (circle in center) it would be better.

There are now a slew of additional icon tasks added!  Just search on the title or tags for icons and you'll see there are five other icon sets we would love to see you design, consistent with this icon set.
